Generator transfer switches must function correctly to safely connect backup power during outages. In Dearborn, improper installation or wear can cause the switch to fail, leaving you without power or creating dangerous backfeed situations. Our inspection tests the switch's operation, verifies proper wiring, and ensures it meets local safety standards. We identify common issues like corrosion, loose connections, or compatibility problems with your generator, providing repairs or replacements to guarantee reliable automatic switching when you need it most.
